the creme colored harness was made from old denim shorts. The material was big enough, but they were men's shorts, if this is from kids jeans that might have been a different story. Perhaps you could split the pants open like they do when they make those jean purses. I would suggest using a softer fabric for the lining, that's what was done with this vest. With summer coming a pretty pastel gingham material might be cute, you could even just make the bodice out of the denim and add a little gingham ruffle skirt and perhaps a matching collar. I love the look of the yellow and white gingham with denim, or eyelet mixes well with denim,there are a lot of color choices. Should be cute can't wait to see it.
oh I did not sew the vests in this picture, my friend did, I just put the finishing things on it. My friend said she did not like working with the old material since it stretched in different places I guess from the wear
